Confront the “March 4 Trump” on MARCH 4th

Share This:

On March 4th in Washington DC and across the US, an offshoot of the Tea Party, the Main Street Patriots, are organizing a swath of pro-Trump “Spirit of America” rallies. Many of these rallies will be attended by white nationalist, Alt-Right, anti-Muslim extremists, and far-Right forces in an attempt to show street level support for Trump at a time when his approval rating is drastically falling. While the Trump administration and his lapdogs at Breitbart and InfoWars have been promoting conspiracy theories of “paid protesters” and “false flags” which seek to demonize grassroots social movements, they have also been giving a free pass to the far-Right. This has led to a wave of acts of terror and an environment of fear.

On March 4th, let’s come together and refuse to be afraid.

We are calling on people everywhere to resist what is sure to be an open display of racism and misogyny. While some argue that confronting fascists in the streets will only draw attention to them, we know better than to remain complicit. Fascists don’t deserve a single outlet or forum to promote their disgusting ideology. Events like these empower and embolden these scum to further organize.

In Berkeley, the events are specifically being organized by members of the Alt-Right, connected to groups like the ‘Proud Boys.’

These events are being organized in an attempt to make it appear that Trump has widespread public support despite massive anger building against him, and seeks to use his supporters as an auxiliary army against rising social forces that are physically confronting Trump and his policies.

Trump and his administration represents a disgusting pro-corporate and pro-billionaire agenda that seeks to push neoliberalism to its authoritarian conclusion while destroying the environment, privatizing everything, attacking immigrants, Muslims, the trans and queer community, and the poor and working-class as a whole.
